They say that a good trader must accept that he made a mistake and move on to the next day. Yesterday, I clearly made a strategic mistake by leaving the I fund when the Dow was 100+.

This is a tough market to get a feel for. Hopefully we can get a rally tonight. Good Luck..:D
 
Wow! Big jump on the vix today. S&P found support at 1492 again. I think the shorts are going to get squeezed tomorrow and Thursday.:)
 
The F fund is taking a hit again today. Yields had a big jump up this morning but they're now modestly off their highs. I guess bond traders did most of their work yesterday. Insider trading??:D

The 12,000 construction jobs added makes no sense. I think yields could reverse on Monday, which would make the F fund very tempting.

S&P is finding support at the 20 DMA. If this holds, we should see a bounce tomorrow. The S fund is hanging on just below the 50 DMA.
 
If the S&P doesn't get back above it's 50 DMA (1521-22) soon, it will be considered a dead cat bounce and we'll see death and destruction. In fact, it looks like shorts are coming in as I type. The housing news was very bad. I just hope it doesn't tank this afternoon. I have a feeling Apple is going to disappoint. Expectations are too high.

A few things to think about:

1) CFC admitted spill-over from sub-prime into prime.

2) Yesterday's Chrysler and Alliance LBO news.

3) Last night, another hedge fund, dealing with sup-prime CDO's, suspended redemtions.

4) Yen carry trade is in trouble
 
If it falls below the support of around 1495, the next stop is probably about 1470. Looks like it bounced off 1490, for now.
 
don't forget the 100 DMA or SMA -- around 1484'ish. a lot of these corrections find support in increments of 25 DMAs, 75 fell, let's hope 100 holds.
